Re: NESHAP Asbestos Inspection
Old Manager's House
Anita, Iowa
Mr. Peach;
On April 30, 2024, samples of suspected asbestos containing materials were collected in
the Old Manager's House, Lake Anita, Anita Iowa. Please find enclosed the Asbestos
Sampling Summary and the Analytical Reports for those suspect materials tested.
A material is considered asbestos containing when asbestos content exceeds one percent
or is assumed to be asbestos containing. The materials listed in the Existing ACM Report
must be removed prior to demolishing the structure.
Joshua, if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely
Scott Brown Inspector # 23-11045I
